Nineteen thirty nine, Harland Sanders had a dream
Started from a secret recipe
Used eleven herbs,
Cooked fried chicken past superb
As they say, all the rest is history

Franchised out in "Fifty Two"..Utah had the first
They all loved it in Salt Lake City
The taste it was so grand,
Stirred a big demand,
And very soon, it's fame had spread 'cross the land

Kentucky Fried, you wear the crown
Throughout the world, so many towns
A flavor fresh and new,
Regular...Crispy, too
It's why we all do..
Finger lick Kentucky Fried
Finger lick Kentrucky Fried

Harland Sanders died, more than twenty years ago
But his Chicken fryin' dreams are still alive
Two billion sold each year,
A fast food pioneer
He was Colonel-honored back in "Thirty Five"

His chain restaurant plan, he began age sixty six
It's now the corporation giant, KFC
Minds boggle to perceive,
What one man did achieve
In this land of golden opportunity

Kentucky Fried, you wear the crown
Throughout the world, so many towns
A flavor fresh and new,
Regular...Crispy, too
It's why we all do
Finger lick Kentucky Fried
Finger lick Kentucky Fried
It's the best you ever tried
And it's Colonel Sander's Pride,
Finger lick Kentucky Fried...
